About Xplornet

Headquartered in Woodstock, New Brunswick, Xplornet Communications 
Inc. is Canada’s leading rural broadband provider. We believe everyone 
should have access to the transformative benefits of broadband, so we make 
our service available everywhere in Canada, including the hard-to-reach 
places. We overcome the challenges of Canada’s vast geography through 
our deployment of Canada’s first national 4G network, which leverages both 
fixed-wireless towers on the ground and next-generation satellites in space. 
Our customers live in the farthest reaches of the country and just outside 
of major urban centres, and through our coast-to-coast network of local 
dealers, we connect them to all that the Internet offers. Xplornet is high-
speed Internet – for all of Canada. 

Xplornet connects you to what matters.
